Welcome to Canada, scumbag. We couldn't stop you, even if we wanted to


In the latest self-inflicted blow to Canadian sovereignty, a judge has ruled that our border guards need warrants to search vehicles of people coming into this country.

In the process, the judge threw out the drug-smuggling case against Ajitpal Singh Sekhon, who had attempted to import 50 kilograms of cocaine past a Vancouver-area border crossing.

This comes after unarmed Canadian border agents in 2006 abandoned their posts en masse and literally ran for their lives at the approach of murder suspects from the USA.

Oh, well. The border's really just an imaginary line on a map, anyway.
